Many employers make a point of checking the past 2-3 places on your resume, regardless of whether they were listed as references or not. Also, not listing your most recent clients/managers as references (because why wouldn't they

Everyone "knows" this but it generally applies to more nuanced categories. For example, about liking your boss's jokes, believing in "Agile", etc. But in regard to, you know, important stuff, such as matters of one

So if, heaven forbid, someone ever does get fired - which of the two remaining options do you propose is best: (1) commit suicide, or (2) lie in response to the "have you ever been fired" question? Since answering honestly is apar

The topic is entirely moot. What is "dehumanizing" is the unprovoked war of racist, colonial aggression, enacted by the Russian Federation upon Ukraine - and conducted from the start with a policy of terror, directed at civilians.

There is nothing different between how NSDAP whipped up a nation to go on a 6 year rampage across Europe than what's happening now. An excellent analogy, as applies to the current Russian state having dragged its population into a se

The thing is, it's perfectly possible for something to possess hybrid qualities. In the case of AI: both potentially quite useful (unlike crypto) and incredibly, toxically overhyped (just like crypto). Ironically, the fact that a lot

There's this thing known as Wikipedia, which has a full summary of law's major provisions. It omits a few key aspects unfortunately, but I'm sure you'll be able to find those on your own.

All Ukraine did was introduce a bill to make all official communications be provided in Ukrainian. The law does a lot more than that, and is quite obnoxious actually.

So what? Aside from being egregiously hypocritical and unfair -- the practice promotes foundational rot and moral cretinism among the nation's most powerful and influential, at the expense of society at large. By providing fake cred

That Russian would conclude that Ukraine is mostly fake. If they have the social and political awareness of a 12 year-old, perhaps. Nobody actually talks in Ukrainian around them. Absolutely not true for (and a very weird thing to say a

Russia is very successful in the Ukraine war against NATO ... I don't see how one can even begin to arrive at such an assessment, considering the basic chain of events since Feb 24, 2022.

That’s self-imposed complexity. It's not a matter of complexity for its own sake. The standard transliteration an intentional trade-off that favors accuracy/fidelity over accessibility to lazy English speakers. Berman has a poi

If it's okay for Côte d'Ivoire or Réunion then I don't see why Türkiye should be snubbed for making a similar request. Also it's 2023 and people know how to deal with tricky alphabets and stuff now.

It was the US State Department and Congress (See: McCain, et. al.) implicated in the ouster of a legitimately elected Ukrainian president in what would most reasonably be described as a violent coup ... No one in Ukraine believes this nar

Brezhnev considered himself Russian, as did Khrushchev. Kaganovich's background is more complex, but that's splitting hairs. What's more important is that, to a first order approximation -- the way the SU conducted itself geo

The whole topic here is about how America could/couldn’t have anticipated the invasion. The topic here, at least where it started to veer way off course from the original thread, is the essentially pro-Kremlin narrative in the GGGP c

You know who the "victim" of the current invasion is. It's not the US. Yes, if you are a third-party citizen and observe ... This is just spin and narrative to suggest that the war isn't really Putin's fault.

We agree that Lula is awful. In regard to the guy who preceded him, and his comparative awfulness - perhaps not so much. Either way - yours is an amazing and beautiful country. I really hope things work out there somehow, moving forward.
